Huh, well. That’s not such a straightforward answer, Nonnie!
As @fuckthisimgoingtoerebor can attest, the chapters started short and GREW. They were initially around 4-5K long.
Chapter 41 is 21K long.
(ricky, i am so so so sorry.)
I am cutting back now, to between 12-15K per chapter. Chapter 42 was 14K, which felt manageable. I aim to keep them all at around that length from here on!
